Meaning of Home

Home is a word that usually refers to a building in which one lives, but home is also a feeling. For example the feeling of belonging comes with a proper home. A home can be any size, shape, and have anyone and anything in it as long as one would feel like they belong. It is their home even if it is not where one lives. A home is a place which could invoke feelings of home. Homes make you feel comfortable, a home makes you feel desired and valued, a home makes you feel important. These feelings make up a good home. A home can contain people or things that make you feel this way, these people could be your family, friends, teachers, et cetera. These things could be good food, your bed, and such. People think a place may feel homey even if the place is not their actual house. So home can be a feeling and a place at the same time, your actual home where you live might be where you're comfortable. In that case your home would be your home. Maybe your school might be your home because you feel particularly happy or safe when you’re there. Believe it or not there are many people with neither a home as a building nor a home as a feeling. Habitat For Humanity is an organization that wants to change that. Habitat For Humanity wants to work together and solve the housing problems in Canada at the moment so people have homes that feel homey. Habitat For Humanity takes donations and volunteers to make this seemingly large goal possible. Habitat for Humanity uses the money they make from donations to get materials and make affordable housing for people who may not be able to afford regular housing prices. This housing crisis is preventing people from getting proper homes. So in conclusion, I think Habitat for Humanity is a great idea to help solve the horrid housing crisis in Canada that’s going on.
